Use this function for quality assurance applications. For example, use CritBinom to determine the greatest number of defective parts that are allowed to come off an assembly line run without rejecting the entire lot.
- If any argument is nonnumeric, CritBinom generates an error.
- If trials is not an integer, it is truncated.
- If trials < 0, CritBinom generates an error.
- If probability_s is < 0 or probability_s > 1, CritBinom generates an error.
- If alpha < 0 or alpha > 1, CritBinom generates an error.
